Timeline

1911

Bina Das (24 August 1911—1986) was an Indian revolutionary and nationalist from West Bengal.

Bina Das was born in a Baidya Brahmin family to a teacher Beni Madhab Das and a social worker, Sarala Devi.

Beni Madhab hailed from Chittagong and is known as one of the mentors of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose.

Bina's elder sister Kalyani Das was also a freedom fighter.

Das was a student of St. John's Diocesan Girls' Higher Secondary School and Bethune College, Calcutta.

On 6 February 1932, she attempted to assassinate the Bengal Governor Stanley Jackson, in the Convocation Hall of the University of Calcutta.

The revolver was supplied by another freedom fighter Kamala Das Gupta.

She fired five shots but failed.

Her confession, which ran to five pages long and was written in English, was censored by the British colonial administration, but still found itself widely circulated.

In it, she wrote that:"'My object was to die, and if to die, to die nobly fighting against this despotic system of Government, which has kept my country in perpetual subjection to its infinite shame and endless suffering – and fighting in a way which cannot but tell... I have been thinking – is life worth living in an India so subjected to wrong, and continually groaning under the tyranny of a foreign Government, or is it not better to make one's supreme protest against it by offering one's life away? Would not the immolation of a daughter of India and of a son of England awaken India to the sin of its acquiescence to its continued state of subjection and England to the iniquities of its proceedings?'" The Special Tribunal convened to judge her sentenced her to nine years of rigorous imprisonment on charges of attempted murder under section 307 of the Indian Penal Code.

1944

Her sister Kalyani Bhattacharjee edited a book called Bengal Speaks (published in 1944), and dedicated it to her.

1945

She believed that Marxism should be re-established according to the needs of the country.

She was a friend of Suhasini Ganguly, a freedom fighter.

After the death of her husband, Das led a lonely life in Rishikesh and died in anonymity.

1960

Das won the Padma Shri award in 1960 for her "Social Work".
